A burgeoning second quantum revolution promises powerful applications of quantum mechanical phenomena discovered and understood throughout the last century. While the biggest impacts seem confined to an undetermined future time frame, some quantum technologies are achieving maturation. We ask a panel of experts about the current and near-term applications of quantum technologies in information and sensing.
COVI-COM intends to leverage technological advancements and techniques in communications and AI to address disruptive, as well as regular challenges arising due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The present-day world urgently needs resilient and sustainable solutions that can address the challenges arising out of the mandated need for periodic sanitization, intermittent quarantines and lockdowns, and social distancing. This workshop aims to mobilize the global communications and networking community for enabling long-term solutions for alleviating the social and economic constraints put in place to battle COVID-19 infections and arrest its spread. The impact of these solutions are projected to be long-term as with no definite cure or treatment in sight, human society is expected to adapt to the new social norms of intermittent lockdowns, quarantine, and social distancing. This workshop encourages the use of machine learning techniques, data mining, network science, communication technologies, and other similar technologies to counter the challenges arising out of the present COVID-19 pandemic.
Connected Health: Challenges and Solutions for Successful Adoption What are the challenges we face in the introduction and especially the adoption of connected health innovation? Give concrete examples of challenges and solutions tested (both successfully and unsuccessfully) for successful integration and adoption (postponement of challenges and solutions experienced during COVID)
This industry keynote is on Convergence and Disaggregation, a Networking Systems Perspective. Bio: As vice president of Strategy and CTO for the ION Division at Nokia, Stephen is responsible for looking at the road ahead and determining which new projects and emerging markets the company should consider for investing its resources. Relying on a background that includes more than 20 years’ experience in the telecom and networking industries, he helps develop road maps for the company so it can seize the opportunities that are a best fit. Some of his key successes in this role include driving investments in Packet Core and CDN technology, as well as being an early advisor on the company’s work in NFV and SDN.
It is undeniable that artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms are at the heart of a fast-growing number of new telecommunication technologies. With our panel of experts, we will explore a variety of IP protection strategies that include copyrights, trade secrets and patents, as well as their applicability to data and AI technologies.
With 5G and similar technologies such as AI gaining more and more momentum in their implementation into vertical industries and with research on them ongoing, it becomes more important to understand how they are being applied across multiple sectors of industry and society. Insights can often be gained in environments with multiple vertical ecosystem participants that may have differing perspectives and may orient part of the next stage of research on them. Initiatives such as Networld Europe, 5GPPP, PAWR, ENCQOR and others offer opportunities to apply new technologies in many areas, foster participation of SMEs and link with research initiatives in various verticals.

This industry keynote is on the Internet Needs More Engineering. Bio: Scott is the Head of the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security. The Cyber Centre is the single unified source of expert advice, guidance, services and support on cyber security for government, critical infrastructure owners and operations, the private sector and the Canadian public. Scott began his career at the Communications Security Establishment (CSE) in 1999 and has held various positions including Assistant Deputy Minister of IT Security, acting Assistant Deputy Minister of Corporate Services and Chief Financial Officer, Director General of Cyber Defence and a variety of positions of increasing responsibility across CSE, primarily in the Signals Intelligence and IT Security domains. He previously worked at the Privy Council Office as a National Security Policy Advisor in the Security & Intelligence Secretariat. Scott holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Electronic Systems Engineering, a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, and a Masters of Business Administration.
Internet traffic is undergoing constant change. One prominent example is the COVID-19 outbreak, a global pandemic, in March 2020. As a result, billions of people were either encouraged or forced by their governments to stay home to reduce the spread of the virus. This caused many to turn to the Internet for work, education, social interaction, and entertainment. With the Internet demand rising at an unprecedented rate, the question of whether the Internet could sustain this additional load emerged. To answer this question, we review the impact of the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic on Internet traffic. Next, we will take a look at the rise of IoT devices and their traffic patterns. Bio: Anja Feldmann studied CS in Paderborn, Germany and continued her studies at Carnegie Mellon University, where she earned her Ph.D in 1995. The next four years she did research work at AT\&T Labs Research, before taking professor positions at Saarland University, the TU Munich, and the TU Berlin. In May 2012, she was elected the first woman on the employer side of the Supervisory Board of SAP. Since the 2018, Anja is a director at the Max Planck Institute for Informatics in Saarbrücken, Germany. Her current research interests include Internet measurement, traffic engineering and traffic characterization, network performance debugging, and network architecture. She has published more than 70 papers and has served on more than 60 program committees, including as Co-Chair of ACM SIGCOMM 2003 and ACM IMC 2011 and as Co-PC-Chair of ACM SIGCOMM 2007, ACM IMC 2009, ACM HotNets 2014, and ACM CoNext 2020. She is a recipient of the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Preis, the Berliner Wissenschaftspreis, the Schelling Preis, and the Vodafone Innovation Award. She is a member of the German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina, the BBAW, and acatech.
Traditional network’s “best-effort” forwarding gradually fails to meet the needs of booming real-time applications, such as industrial internet, vehicle networking and artificial intelligence, etc. Time-sensitive and deterministic networking has become a promising technology to achieve strict QoS guarantees, such as bounded end-to-end latency and jitter, and higher reliability. However, as the massive deployment of time-sensitive and deterministic networking, it also brings many challenges, such as synchronous and asynchronous scheduling and shaping mechanisms and so on. Thus the Workshop on “Time-sensitive and Deterministic Networking” gives the opportunity to gather the researchers from the academia and industry in order to investigate the challenges and identify the further directions for the ultra-reliable and low latency communication.
